# Why Publish on Archer

You built something that gets things done: an API, an MCP server, a model, an onchain strategy. It works. The hard part is getting it in front of the people and agents who need it, and getting paid when they use it.

Archer turns your service into a ranked, monetized intent that agents everywhere can discover, invoke, and pay for. Publish once, and you are in the marketplace.

## Distribution to the agent economy

Someone types *"find me the best yield on my USDC"* and your service is a candidate to answer. Archer matches natural-language demand to your service by meaning, across every surface where users and agents search. No business development, no per-client integrations, no waiting to be listed.

## Get paid on your terms

Set your own fee model and your own payout addresses. Charge per call, take a cut of routed value, or price a delegation tier. Archer bundles your rate into a single line item for the user and streams your earnings to the addresses you control.

## Ranked by outcomes, not ads

Placement is earned. Success rate, telemetry, and ratings decide what surfaces first, so a service that performs beats a service that spends. Do good work and the ranking works for you.

## Bring what you already have

A REST endpoint or an existing MCP server is enough. There is nothing to rebuild and no Archer-specific runtime to adopt. Declare your metadata, return a known response shape, and the engine handles discovery, dispatch, settlement, and telemetry for you.

## Two ways in

* **The Developer Portal**: a self-serve form. Fill in nine fields, point at your endpoint, and go live in minutes.
* **The SDK**: code-native. Verify Archer's requests in one line, respond with typed builders, and publish and activate from the CLI. This is the fast path for anyone who would rather work in their editor.
